Glad we didn’t sign Cerny on a permanent deal. He’s just very one dimensional and has no pace, so the only time he’s a threat on goal is when the opposition switch off and let him turn on the ball and onto his left foot. 
 

Bottom 6 SPFL sides will do that, but he’ll do fuck all in Europe/OF games or even against the likes of Aberdeen IMO

And too lightweight mate.

[AGC123 1,254]

Big Phil gave a good interview there i thought. 
 

great to see the wee dig with the Europa group draw vs some champions league groups 😂

[OrangeRab 3,384]

Jefte excellent. 

Pretty unconvinced by Propper. Thought he got away with a few bad decisions. Misses a lot of crosses in the air?

Bajrami interesting. Doesn’t look at all athletic but good vision. Not a winger tho.

Cerny poor/predictable.

Balance of midfield not right with Sterling. Like him but we’re never going to play fast flowing football without some better ball players.

That’s sort of how I see it too.

He’ll score some great goals here and there and/or good assists but just can’t see him being able to cope with the pace of an OF game.

Physically Dundee’s left back handled him with no bother at all.

TBF he looked pretty good first couple of games, and he gave the impression of being a fairly decent player. No arguing he was poor today coming back off illness,  I think we should hold off for a wee while before declaring him a right off

[Sunglasses Ron 2,647]

Wee Connor is a player. Few misplaced passes but never hides and always pressing, great signing.

Young Cameron can play. We should go after him in January.

Definitely. He has looked very good every time I’ve seen him play.

Rangers Bland

[Essandoh 21,840]

Bajrami wasn’t playing as a winger and will do a job fine from either side

That ball for Dessers was fantastic

[LegendofCoop 18,104]

Thought Butland looked far more assured today than of late. Shame he had to be right enough, some slack defending in front of him made it more difficult than it should have been. Still, he dealt with everything really well. That double save was unreal!

He has a determination and desire seldom seen in a player nowadays. He seems to have a genuine passion playing for us which is all credit to him given that, as far as I am aware, he was brought up as a typical Sheepie, i.e hates Rangers more than he loves his own Club.

Like Cortes. Once he gets a run of games he'll be even better. Iganame looks good, Bajrami was ok, prob trying to adjust to the Scottish game. Jefte good and Dessers done well with another two goals. 

Midfield isn't strong enough though. Sterling was poor and Diamonde average when he came on. Barron had a good game, but too weak in that department. 

Cortes is dugmeat imo

Listening to Dessers interview, hard to dislike him. Seems very humble, always smiling despite the abuse he's had. Though plenty of it justified lol

Easy to dislike him. He misses more than he scores for me so its a "thanks, but no thanks"

[AGM_72 4,063]

Pretty good today I thought. Felt we played at a really high tempo before the goal and then dropped off after we scored. Lost a bit of control, but regained it second half. 

Being hyper critical, I think we could have created some more clear opportunities in the first 20 minutes playing at a high tempo. But really, we could have had 6 or 7 today. Could also have conceded a couple as well.

Overall a 3-0, back at Ibrox, can't really complain. Hopefully in a good place for a positive result in Europe on Thursday.

Who McCausland? Aye I don't think so either it was more to point out I'm disappointed in Cerny a wee bit. Early days still.

Aye mate, McCausland. 

[ForeverAndEver 73,875]

Barron great again, Dessers much better, Butland too. Thought Jefte and Souttar were good again.

Cerny is wank, should be dropped.

Agreed with all this, plus I thought Lawrence was really good today.

Why Barron was ever on Aberdeens bench is mental

At Rangers, you're only as good as your last touch on the ball.

[gmcf 35,395]

Good performance today , against a team that's been pretty decent in the league so far . 

Could / should have been more . 

[Loyal72 13,630]

Good performance, sadly wasn't able to catch the second half as had an emergency call out for work, but hey, more than 1 goal in a dominant display.

Can't grumble 💪🏻💙

Big step up from anyone to us tbh, not many players we'll buy come from a bigger more pressured team

Plus he won't need to go to ikea for anything, he has his gaff already

Young boy mate. Might still live with his folks 😂

[PromDeAnglais 6,752]

I'm still hopeful Cerny comes good. Last September we were calling Sima a donkey then he came on to a game after he got to grips with our league.

Barron is almost proof in the pudding. Miller makes all sorts of sense.

Barron was basically a free. Miller would be above what we will spend.

Not denying it's the player type I'd like to see. But pretty confident it won't happen as we won't spend whats needed
